Defender Dan Burn will join Wigan Athletic on a three-year deal when his Fulham contract expires at the end of the month.

Centre-back Burn has passed a medical with the Sky Bet Championship new boys and will become their third signing ahead of the 2016-17 season.

He played 32 games in the Championship for Fulham last season and joins Stephen Warnock and Alex Gilbey as a summer arrival at the DW Stadium.

Boss Gary Caldwell is pleased to have secured the services of the 24-year-old, and said: "He fits our profile exactly, young, hungry and with experience at this level and the desire to progress with us.
